Answer: Don't put things down.
Have you ever knitted something part way? (No, I always finish a project before starting something new.)
Have you ever looked at your list of "hibernating" projects (on Ravelry-- what a sobering list) and decided to finish something? (No, I always finish a project before starting something new.)
Have you ever looked at a half-finished project and thought, "What the...?" Where was I? This doesn't look right! #%#@$^&#** Why didn't I mark where I was in the pattern those many months ago? (Oh, yeah, I always finish a project before starting something new.)
It took me awhile, and I wasn't interested in something new, and granddaughter is arriving soon, so I picked up the pieces, and... BRILLIANT! There was a sticky note on the pattern indicating an approximate starting point...whew! Could have been a melt-down.
Will it be assembled in the next weeks? Hmmm, experience tells me it is unlikely!!!
First cast on December 22, 2011, when I knew my granddaughter wouldn't be near for Christmas. It's all different this year!
Very clever! Sticky notes - a great idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little project! And yes I do that all the time. The problem is that normally I don´t put a project into hibernating status unless there was something not going well so it makes it even worse when I pick it back up again.
